The countdown has begun and there are only a few more weeks until Christmas! Since Thanksgiving, I have been trying to get everything in order, but, like most of y’all, it is SUCH a busy time! I feel like once we get into December, the time just flies by. On top of all the holidays, it’s my son’s birthday, tons of parties going on, and we are taking a vacation – what was I thinking?!?! That’s why I am relying on easy recipes to get me through this holiday, including this super simple Holiday Sausage Cornbread Stuffing.

I headed Meijer to pick up my ingredients, including the Jimmy Dean® Roll Sausage which would be the star of the recipe.

They use a savory blend of unique seasonings in the sausage that kicks up everyday meals, along with the premium pork sausage in every roll. I also like using Jimmy Dean® Roll Sausage in several holiday recipes, because it’s very versatile. My friend was just telling me about her Sausage stuffed mushrooms she makes every holiday season and I can’t wait to see them! I couldn’t wait to start the recipe!

After cooking up the vegetables and sausage, I was ready to mix in the cornbread and rest of the ingredients. That’s it – then you pop it in the oven! It’s super simple!
